Umm... I wasn't asleep at this second but I did have a really long dream about being at um my sorority regional conference, we are going down to it. But it was like today; We were going down today. So it was like this conference, and my mom borrowed my car, and I was texting her and I was like I'm already late I need to leave or whatever, I need to get my clothes, my car, I thought she was going to do my hair and I told her I didn't want her help no more cause she was being mean, and she brought my car, and she like left... And I was like texting her and she wasn't gonna be back untill 3, and I was like mom you are gonna ruin my whole plan I had to be somewhere at like 12:30, and then I was at a cookout....wait before the cookout I was hanging out with a bunch of random people, we were all like, I think we were looking for clothes, people from my high school, they all go to my high school out here, we were all just talking about what we were gonna do post-graduation, and then I was at cookout, with some friends, most of these people were guys plus my brother. And we were like basically just walking around, and we were just having a good time. And he's like: "People pulled up and like they want to look at the house that y'all are going to rent." And I was like: "How yo gonna look at the house when we still in the house?" And then I remember trying to do my hair and I dont think it came out right. I think that was it, I'm done.
Source & context
A deidentified English report collected after a sleep awakening in the Zhang and Wamsley study. Some reports describe brief dreamlike imagery rather than a complete story; waking-only rows and no-experience reports are excluded. The complete source transcript is preserved except for explicitly documented bracketed privacy substitutions. This is a report, not a new community submission, a distinct-person count or a claim that every report is an independent dream episode. The narrator is awake while reporting but explicitly describes the preceding long dream; current wakefulness does not itself negate the recalled scene.
